What should I do if I have insufficient gastrointestinal motility?

Insufficient gastrointestinal motility may be a situation that many people are prone to. If you do not pay attention to conditioning, it will affect your dietary health and absorption. It is recommended to drink more water, pay attention to exercise, and develop good living and eating habits.

?1. Pay attention to strengthening nutrition and exercise to improve the body's resistance.

?2. Do appropriate exercise. Exercise not only consumes energy in the body, but also stimulates gastrointestinal motility, which has a good effect on promoting gastric motility and improving gastric functional state.

3. Drink more water.

4. Do not lie down immediately after a meal and avoid eating before going to bed.

?5. Prevent constipation and stimulate gastrointestinal motility.

6. Unless necessary, try not to take medicines that may cause indigestion, such as aspirin, antibiotics, anti-anxiety agents, sleeping pills, etc.

?7. Pay attention to mental hygiene when eating. Enjoyable meals can increase the secretion of digestive glands and enhance digestive function. On the contrary, being in a bad mood while eating can inhibit the secretion of digestive glands and gastrointestinal motility, leading to decreased digestive function.

?8. Develop good living habits and lifestyle. Maintain a regular daily routine and diet, combine work and rest, exercise regularly, keep a good mood, etc. Correct bad habits, drink less strong tea, especially avoid drinking strong tea on an empty stomach; drink alcohol in moderation and avoid mixed drinks; quit smoking, especially do not smoke when you are tired, etc.

9. If it is caused by a disease, the primary disease should be treated. For example, diabetic patients are prone to "gastroparesis", which is commonly known as insufficient gastric motility. Due to poor blood sugar control or autonomic neuropathy, gastric motility is insufficient and gastric emptying is difficult, which can easily lead to symptoms such as vomiting and abdominal distension.

In addition to paying attention to the above points, patients with insufficient gastric motility should use medication or other treatments in a timely manner when symptoms occur, such as taking domperidone (Metoclopramide), squeezing Zusanli, etc.
